I strive to help clients understand their most vital psychological needs and envision how to fulfill them—by changing their environment, trying new behaviors, or developing more empowering attitudes about their circumstances or future opportunities. I support clients in cultivating self-compassion, refusing to be defined by setbacks, and taking meaningful action aligned with their values and purpose.

Hello! I am now taking new in-person clients. If you are reading this, chances are you may be struggling with parenting, connecting with your partner or building meaningful relationships. Or perhaps you want to better understand your own individual mental health journey. We can often feel overwhelmed and unable to see our role in the problem. This tends to cause anxiety, depression, and can sometimes cause us to turn to substances to cope. Sometimes we just need a little guidance to get us to our goals.

Life is a series of challenges, difficulties, and conflicts. Your response to these experiences can make or break you. A path filled with openness, curiosity, and a passion for learning - what has been called a growth mindset - fosters mastery, resilience, and well-being. A resistance toward growth and change, a fixed mindset, can lead to fear, failure, and mistakes. As a therapist who has embraced the growth mindset, I strongly believe that in creating an environment of emotional safety, acceptance, and understanding, these qualities can be cultivated into a pathway of healing, change, and amazing growth.

Many people come to me when they feel a real need for things to change: stuck in old patterns, overwhelmed by conflict, facing an existential crisis, or disconnected from themselves or the people they love. I work well with individuals, couples, and families who want clarity, honest conversations, and are willing to grow because they sense the freedom on the other side is worth it. I’m especially drawn to those who’ve “tried everything,” been labeled “difficult,” or hit rock bottom, yet still feel unheard or caught in cycles they can’t shift on their own.

Virtually all of us can benefit from this simple advice: "quiet the mind and open the heart." Unfortunately, our stressful environments are pressuring us to do the opposite. But, through targeted tools and practices, we can: observe our thinking and emotions more objectively, accept what we cannot control, develop more compassion for ourselves and others, refuse to be defined by the worst things that happened to us, and take action toward our true values and purpose.

You’re the one who “has it together”. Career on track, friends think you’re fine, and yet your body still launches into panic at the smallest trigger. Nights are restless; memories loop like a stuck soundtrack. You’ve read the self-help books, practiced mindfulness, and still feel hijacked by anxiety or old trauma. You want relief that lasts, clarity that’s more than “coping,” and the freedom to enjoy the life you’ve built instead of white-knuckling through it.

Men's Issues Therapists
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
